Introduction to Programmatic Parallelism

---

• Parallelisation speeds up computation by dividing work across multiple processing units.
• Processes use private memory and communicate information explicitly between them (distributed memory, e.g. MPI).
• Threads share memory within a process and require synchronisation to prevent race conditions.
• Shared memory parallelisation is simpler but limited in scale. Distributed memory scales better, but is more complex.
